Partnering with nature to transform health and lives
We help behavioral health agencies, architects, schools, and corporations create nature-based programs and spaces so both organizations and the people they serve can heal, grow, and thrive.
At the Intersection of Nature, Health, and Human Potential
Nature Up Health is a consulting and training firm founded by Peter Mayfield—creator of the Whole Hearts, Minds & Bodies model and co-author of the Four Roots Method.
We help organizations embed nature-based therapeutics into programs, landscapes, and systems of care.
Whether it’s mentoring youth in crisis, designing healing parks, building wellness initiatives for workplaces, or training new paraprofessionals to meet the mental health workforce gap—Therapeutic Nature Solutions bridges research, field-tested practice, and lived experience to deliver real outcomes.
